Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1120675A2] The invention refers to an apparatus and a method for analyzing and visualizing acquired physiological scan data. A display is used to visualize the acquired data and in addition to that the initial calibration setting can be done with sliders which are shown on the display. The apparatus is partitioned in a first subsystem a second subsystem. The second subsystem comprises a processing unit receiving the signals accumulated by the at least two detectors of the first subsystem. The seconds subsystem is used as well for calculating polar coordinates of the signals acquired by the first and second detectors. A unit for quantizing the angle component of the polar coordinates and adjusting the information capacity to the available display and a visualization unit for assigning color to the values measured are implemented in the second subsystem as well. <IMAGE>
